Do you have your own truck or looking to drive someone elses? Also, where are ya located? A lot of drivers here seem to be real happy with Load 1. I'm not sure if they're putting on drivers or not. I'm a local driver here in Michigan. I don't make the near the $$ that the Load 1 drivers...

I only did one run last week. M-Th there were no runs. Friday though was one of those 10 mile gems I love so much. Profit wise I made twice as much on that than I did going to Lordstown, Ohio a lil while back. Monday I'm pre booked on a double run. Same pick up spot, 2 delivery destinations...

Happy Christmas back at ya. I don't have XM, but do like those Christmas stations. There's a few Christmas songs, like Bob Seger's Little Drummer Boy, the Band Aid song, & a few Triberian Orchestra songs that I have on my playlist at home year round. When it's not Christmas season I flip...

I do- at least in winter when I have extra pockets. I have to fess up in summer not so much. And am dang glad sure I did this time. I found my main set 20 minutes later, but the place I delivered to would have been peeved if they had to keep their overhead door in Michigan open for that...

I could use some ideas here please. The situation is at my folks house, to get out of their driveway, ya pull out onto a road w/ a 55MPH speed limit. That wouldn't seem like such a big deal as millions of people live in similar situations across the country. The problem is that ya can't see...

I'll add to the Thank you for the Service comment & also to the glad he's back safe. Happy Christmas to both Ross & yourself.

LOL!! as a gambling man I like how she plays the odds!! :D

Mostly brutal w/ the occasional good week the first 9 months, good these last 2 months. Dec has been decent so far. On a sorta related note I was doing some year end cleaning here & found some old checks from the mid 2000's. I didn't have every one of them, just some assorted ones. Checks of...

Being mostly local, my favs were the high paying shorties. The 7 miles for $100 type runs. I've had 7 of those since July, the best being a 12 mile/$175. There is some loading & unloading, but nothing major. Since it's not booked thru my carrier, it's something that I'm paid on that day...

Some interesting thoughts here. When I saw the Tony Martin link, my gf is from England & I was like "holy cow!! that's one of the first mega conversations we had, this guy Tony Martin. I remember that story!!!!" Brought back a flood of nice memories. I liked the comment about "temporay...

Some of ya's in this area might already know the story. The basics are a crook breaks into this guys house. The guy catches him in the act, & the crook flees. The guy chases the crook for a few blocks & then shoots him. If you were to rule on this, what would be your verdict? For what...

Now that 2010 is coming to a close, are there any runs you've had in the past year that are memorable & make ya smile as ya think back on em? What took place to make em special for ya?

I would f'in love it if there was technology to where a phone wouldn't work in a moving vehicle. You'll have to forgive me here but I think someone's right to live over rides someone's right to yammer on their phone & ram into em. The technology to be able to call 911 while moving wouldn't...

Not sure if this is good or bad, but I'm thinking like Moot. Even had the "Factoring Shark" term in my thought process when I read the post a few above. As for the original issue, I can feel for you. I've been paid extremely late by a company. I was told 30 days, not 4 months. It's never...

LOL!! Pretty good. The ones about the bathroom door, hotel beds, & the toothbrush in another room actually apply to me. I'm working on getting more messed up in the head so the others do too. I'm disappointed that the one about the airplane pillows/blankets wasn't mentioned. You're...

Free Tickets are no longer available Free tickets are no longer being distributed. From the article: “The Detroit Lions have announced that due to the overwhelming response this morning for tickets to tonight’s game between the Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants at Ford Field, tickets...

I haven't been there in years, so my info may be dated. I'd say it's well worth it. Things may have changed but time is also $$$. If I could get from the east side of TO to the west side in an hour less time, I'd pay the $8CND ($5US) or whatever it was. Yes it's expensive. I wouldn't use...

It really all depends on what you're looking for. The Load 1 guys seem to have the biggest paychecks in the industry, by far. No one's shown me a paycheck, but they all seem to be pretty happy on here. Not sure where you're from but there's prolly local companies that would pay more per mile...

I wanted to thank those who replied. He's going to look at it again today & if he doesn't find it I'll bring up some of the things I read on here. I meant to thank ya's earlier but watched the college games on Saturday & then Sunday my internet was down. So once again, thanx.

Scenario: I took my van to a pickup. While waiting to get loaded I shut it off. They loaded me, did the paperwork etc. When I start it to leave the thing doesn't start. They call security & in the meantime I'm trying to start a few times. Before security actually got to me, my van...
